P-47 THUNDERBOLT TO THE HANGAR FOR FLIGHT

YOU ONLY UNDERSTAND PERFECTION IF YOU ATTEMPT IT.

At AirCorps Aviation we have been blessed to work with great people and for great people. All of our current restorations are with customers who are on their fourth or fifth fighter restoration with AirCorps. Those customers have been with us since day one watching us grow from 4 to nearly 60 employees. Customers across the globe have not only appreciated our work but demanded more.  We continue to expand our restoration abilities and explore the idea of what makes a restoration excellent.

FEW PIECES HAVE BOTH GRATIFIED US AND HUMBLED US LIKE THIS P-47 COWLING

There was no need to look elsewhere in the AirCorps shop if you were looking for a cleco. Mike Izzi was likely using every single one of them that we had on the massive engine / nose cowling (P/N 89P63101-32 COWL ASSEMBLY – ENGINE PRIMARY) for the P-47.

The 42-27609 project had no useable accessory and engine cowlings. Thankfully Yanks Air Museum allowed us to scan their originals for reference. The complex metalwork achieved by the fabrication team and the beautiful assembly by the restoration team have come together to create a striking piece of technical artistry that was built from scratch. It is a true showcase of the range of capabilities of the AirCorps shop.
